“It’s a peculiar thing...that the true origin of one’s desire to create, the initial kindling of inspiration, that first generative seed, is always more or less unknown. The source of one’s creativity seems to evade a clear-cut understanding. No clear analysis can be made. It’s too subjective, too multifaceted. An artist can recount their reasons for what might have given them the idea to paint, sing, or write about this thing or that, but it remains a mystery how one person can experience the strange, inexplicable wave that leads to an idea, and then is pushed further by an impulse to pick up a tool and give birth to that idea, while another person, simply, cannot.”

“I think it's not the right thing for me. Connor doesn't really like dogs, and our condo is only a two bedroom. I've been around guides and their handlers at the foundation. You have to feed them, exercise them, take them out to relieve themselves, and a bunch of other stuff." "Having someone to love and take care of is good." I've got Connor," Emily said.”
